There she was the Office Manager at Norvel Reed and Sons, Inc., which was the family cattle business. After retirement, Sandy dove into her church family at Erie First Assembly in Erie, PA where she was very active in choir, multiple plays and assemblies, Bible Studies and Small Groups. Her church family was an influential group that she always treasured. She was also a member of Theta Beta Sigma Sorority and the Red Hat Society.
Sandy loved to travel, especially to any where there was a beach or a family member. Her family was the most important part of her life, especially her grandkids, as she was lovingly known as Nana.
Sandy was proceeded in death by her parents, her past in-laws Norvel and Eunice Reed, a sister Rebecca (Becky) Gibson and a niece Joan (Joanie) Thomas.
She is survived by her beloved husband of 20 years, James Woodard, children Ronnie Reed Jr. (Beth) of Sherman, NY, Jane Babcock (Jon) of Clymer, NY, Ann Denny (Steve) of North East, PA, Ryan Reed (Marlene) of Newport Coast, CA.
